I have a 1999 chevy silverado k1500 extended cab. i bought it in the summer of 2002. by january of 2003, i began having trouble with the abs kicking in when is was slowing down to a stop. the roads were not wet or slippery and i almost went into traffic several times (i have also almost hit a parked car pulling in a parking space, and almost went over a steep embankment since then). i paid over $300 in february 2003 to have them fixed and that lasted until february of 2004. when i almost went over the steep embankment at my local grocery store when i was pulling into a parking space, i decided to pull the fuse. the only problem with this is that you don't have cruise any longer. i finally decided i had to get it fixed because we wanted the cruise feature so i got it fixed in december of 2004. by that time, the chevrolet dealers are finding out there is a problem and they just need to clean out the sensor which now costs about $75 (the dealership i bought the truck from wouldn't even admit there was a problem). the big problem is that i do not know when they will give me problems again and i am still a little afraid to drive my truck. i have 2 young children and i would hate to be in an accident and hurt them because of something that chevy knows about and refuses to deal with. i have been checking online, and i have noticed a lot of people are having the same problem. this is a serious problem that needs to be addressed before someone loses their life over it.
